Right then, this is just a topic so I have an idea of who thinks cheats should win games at gameaday, I know there is not much we can do but I would be interested to find out who thinks what on this matter?

I believe that every cheat submitted is copied from somewhere else, whether it be a magazine or website, why if the information is copied should it win?

Let me know
Thanks

A bonus is a good thing to have.

Especially a Brucie-Bonus

I don't really post to win anything at all.
I do it because it's fun and I enjoy swapping ideas and thoughts with others - sometimes I'll look at something in an entirely different light because of a comment.

If I win anything, it's a bonus.
If not, I'll continue to post regardless.

However, I would set fire to this planet if Guru won anything at all.
Ever.

Because, as anyone that's played Black and White knows, you don't reward the monkey for crapping in the store.

I have a big gun?

*looks at Ms Goatboy* You been telling tales outta school again?

As for cheats winning.
I do agree that it would appear that they are pasted from other sites, but at the end of the day, SR run the competition so they can award what they want to who they want.

But that's just my opinion.

Leave Newbies alone guys.
Most are fine, only the odd one or two are rubbish and we all know who.

Everyone started off as a Newbie, and to discriminate and hound reeks of smug superiority.
There's no need for any kind of prejudice here people, just relax and let others live.

Before you start attacking newbies, consider if you are perfect?
Think about how you would feel if, through no design but being new to a place, everyone started harassing you.

Sorry to sound all "love your brother" but I'm noticing a worrying trend of ganging up on people.
It's not on, this is a place for friendly discussions, jokes and gentle flaming. (except for one newbie that really, really shouldnt be allowed out).

So lay off the Newbies folks, you used to be one too.
